Frequently Asked Questions
What does a mechanic check during a general car service?
During a general car service, a mechanic typically checks engine oil and replaces it if required, along with the oil filter. Safety-related components such as brakes, tyres, steering and suspension are inspected for wear or damage. Fluid levels, including coolant, brake fluid and power steering fluid, are also checked and topped up if needed. Many services include a computer diagnostic scan to identify fault codes stored in the vehicle’s system. The purpose of a general service is to maintain reliability, safety and engine performance while identifying early signs of potential problems.
How often should a car be serviced by a mechanic?
Most vehicles require servicing every 10,000 to 15,000 kilometres or every six to twelve months, depending on manufacturer guidelines. Driving conditions play a major role in service frequency, with frequent short trips, towing or stop-start driving often requiring more regular attention. Older vehicles may also benefit from shorter service intervals. Following the service schedule outlined in the vehicle handbook helps maintain performance, fuel efficiency and safety. Regular servicing can also reduce the likelihood of major mechanical failures caused by neglected maintenance over time.
What are common signs that a car needs mechanical repairs?
Common warning signs include unusual noises such as grinding, knocking or squealing, dashboard warning lights, reduced engine performance and increased fuel consumption. Vibrations while driving, pulling to one side when braking or difficulty steering can also indicate mechanical issues. Fluid leaks under the vehicle and burning smells should never be ignored. Addressing these symptoms early allows faults to be diagnosed before they escalate into more serious or expensive problems. A mechanical inspection helps determine the cause and identify the most appropriate repair solution.
